Objective: To evaluate the pre- and intraoperative risk factors associated with excessive bleeding during the perioperative period in adult patients undergoing open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Methods: A total of 1079 consecutive patients undergoing open heart surgery with CPB from January 2001 to May 2010 were included (except for emergency operation). The possible risk factors associated with excessive bleeding were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who received ≥ 7 units of RBC or had a re-operation during which no active bleeding point was found within one day of operation were classified as excessive bleeding. According to the occurrence of excessive bleeding, they were divided into 2 groups: excessive and non-excessive bleeding groups. The possible risk factors associated with excessive bleeding were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to examine the relationship between these factors and excessive bleeding.

Results: Among them, 120 (11.1%) developed excessive bleeding. Multivariate Logistic analysis indicated that the risk factors for excessive bleeding were age (OR = 4.533, 95%CI 2.624 - 7.831), previous sternotomy (OR = 2.781, 95%CI 1.410 - 5.486), preoperative hematocrit concentration (OR = 0.896, 95%CI 0.861 - 0.932), CPB duration (OR = 2.782, 95%CI 1.791 - 4.322) and type of procedure (OR = 2.292, 95%CI 1.376 - 3.817).

Conclusion: Age ≥ 65 years, previous sternotomy, preoperative low hematocrit concentration, CPB duration ≥ 120 min and complex operation were the significant predictors for excessive bleeding in patient undergoing open heart surgery with CPB.

Background:  Uterine fibroids are benign gynecological tumours that arise in the uterine smooth muscle tissue and are characterized by the production of excessive quantities of extracellular matrix. Various therapeutic options, from medical management to surgical intervention, exist for uterine fibroids, for which homeopathy has emerged as a promising therapeutic option in patient-centered care.

Case History:  A 40-year-old woman presented with complaints of heavy menstrual bleeding, with pain in the pelvic region and back.

Objective: To assess the feasibility and outcome of rapid recovery protocol (RRP) in severe adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients with Cobb angle ≥90 degrees underwent single-staged posterior spinal fusion (PSF).

Summary Of Background Data: Corrective surgeries in severe AIS patients entail a higher risk of prolonged operation, excessive bleeding, extended hospital stay, and higher complication rates compared with non-severe AIS patients.

Introduction The debate remains unresolved about whether an open (Milligan-Morgan) or closed (Ferguson) approach is superior for hemorrhoidectomy. Advocates from both groups state that each has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. In light of this, we intend to share our experience by comparing the two in terms of their post-operative outcomes.

The necessity of routinely placing closed suction wound drainage in spinal surgery has been questioned. This study aims to assess if closed suction wound drainage is necessary for posterior atlantoaxial fixation via intermuscular approach. The functional outcomes of these 40 patients who underwent posterior atlantoaxial fixation via intermuscular approach without drainage tube (Group A) were compared with that of a control group, which consisted of 68 randomly enrolled cases with posterior atlantoaxial fixation via intermuscular approach with drainage tube (Group B).

Stroke is a serious condition with sudden onset, high severity, and significant rates of mortality and disability, ranking as the second leading cause of death globally at 11.6%. Hemorrhagic stroke, characterized by non-traumatic rupture of cerebral vessels, can cause secondary brain injury such as neurotoxicity, inflammation, reactive oxygen species, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage.
